I would consider this although sometimes you get what you pay for and I think if you buy better quality it may last longer. In my area anyway the weather would wreck havoc on a cheaper made product. IDK, my sister paid a lot more for her swingset but all these years later it is still in great shape, just a bit worn looking from all the kids and weather changes. jmo There is a good review but it was written today, I would like to see what that owner says this time next year :)
